I think there are 2 different wordings:

 

"push towards" or "push away" means directly, base middle to base middle

"push to base contact" doesn`t have this restriction

but maybe I`m wrong

I remeber it like everything that doesn't read "push in any direction" basicly means directly towards

The rules say

"Some game effects require a model to be pushed in relation to another object, such
as towards or away from another model. When this happens the model must move
in a straight line while obeying these restrictions, moving directly towards (or away
from) the specified object."

and I've yet to see anyone successfully argue that push into base contact isn't a push in relation to another object

Pushing to base contact has to be done towards the nearest point. You can't push to the side like you suggest. (Pushing towards a model is a direction, and so you have to push directly towards. (page 46 of the Rules manual) )

 

that is why I said you have to be off set. You can't be directly behind the model or just slightly. If you are left or right of the model the direct route takes you to the side of the forward base......

Pushing "into base contact" will end up sending Izamu directly towards the Seishin, no matter what angle you put them at.  So in your diagram it will end up looking like this.

I have good news though!  So long as you're summoning incorporeal stuff like most spirits are, the entire discussion is academic!  Izamu can push right through them.

Mmmmmh Mourners.

Undead (hello Asura!), Belles with Disguised and Manipulative, and a 'Funeral Shroud' action to prevent enemy models in their engagement range from targeting anyone not in base contact with them.

My Molly (and Yan) will be watching this space with great interest.
